028: Discovering the History of the #BodyPositive Movement

from Confidently Uncomfortable · host Jordan Gomez

As a Body Positive Coach in the fitness industry I wanted to be more educated on the history of the BOPO movement. Here is what I have discovered so far *still at the beginning of my education in this history* Sources I've been pulling from: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/eating-mindfully/201908/is-body-positivity-all-bodies https://www.terraincognitamedia.com/features/how-the-white-body-positive-and-self-love-movement-hinges-on-anti-blackness-and-how-we-can-stop-it2019 https://www.healthline.com/health/beauty-skin-care/body-positivity-origins#1 https://wearyourvoicemag.com/category/body-politics/bopoincolor/ Women to Follow:  @wearyourvoice https://www.instagram.com/wearyourvoice/ @rachel.cargle https://www.instagram.com/rachel.cargle/ @stephanieyeboah https://www.instagram.com/stephanieyeboah/ @effyourbeautystandards https://www.instagram.com/effyourbeautystandards/ By learning more about these movements it does not TAKE AWAY from your own struggles that you may have with self-love and body confidence, but it should help you further empathize and lift up ALL women who need to feel confident in their skin ESPECIALLY BIPOC WOMXN.  Thank you for being a part of my own journey as I educate myself in fitness and body positive industries and embark on becoming anti-racist with everything that I do.  Currently Reading: "How to Be Antiracist" - Ibram X.

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention.
